14 Estava Eliseu enfermo daquela sua enfermidade de que morreu. E desceu a ele Joás rei de Israel, e chorando diante dele, disse: Meu pai, meu pai, carro de Israel e seus cavaleiros!
15 E disse-lhe Eliseu: Toma um arco e umas flechas. Tomou ele então um arco e umas flechas.
16 E disse Eliseu ao rei de Israel: Põe tua mão sobre o arco. E pôs ele sua mão sobre o arco. Então pôs Eliseu suas mãos sobre as mãos do rei,
17 E disse: Abre a janela de até o oriente. E quando ele a abriu disse Eliseu: Atira. E atirando ele, disse Eliseu: Flecha de salvação do SENHOR, e flecha de salvação contra Síria: porque ferirás aos sírios em Afeque, até consumi-los.
18 E voltou-lhe a dizer: Toma as flechas. E logo que o rei de Israel as tomou, disse-lhe: Fere a terra. E ele feriu três vezes, e cessou.
